Neighborhood Art and The Construction Pit

I took a walk to the fruit stand today and on my way I found all sorts of interesting things to look at. Some of the interesting things were bursts of creative expression, such as the rock tree, the whale and the stickers on the mail box.

Another interesting thing I saw was the construction pit. A light rail station is being built nearby. This is super convenient, although it won't be up and running for another three years (at least!). There are windows that passer-byers can look through to see what is going on with the construction. The first time I looked through the window, it was night time. It was eerie looking through the window at the empty construction pit. The sight gave me the heebie-jeebies. It is an incredibly deep pit and it looks really lonely down there. It is not so sad looking during the day when the sky is blue and construction workers wearing bright orange or yellow are working away.
